Wow....look at the prices! 35cents?
And the sizes.....a 14 was 36" bust, 38"hip.....that would be a 10 now (or maybe even smaller.)
I haven't bought a pattern for years, but this was fun. I remember several of them. Thanks.

Okay the boxers just killed me. I'm going to see if I can copy that and send to my mom for a good laugh.

They weren't funny then!! I made quite a few of those patterns, for myself and daughter . Yeah, I'm old, but check out some dept stores, retro is back! Just wish I could still fit in those tight "slim Jim" pants and sheath dresses!!LOL

I have a box full of older patterns I got from a rummage sale, all sized for teen girls, probaly from the late 60's. So modest compared to what the teens are wearing today!
LOL, the prices! Some patterns are now over 10 bucks!
